experience eg The learners will have encountered or be familiar with or aware of...)
Students may know the shape and the names of the moon phases.

Anticipated problems and possible solutions (Mention problems and solutions related to
management, tasks or students
Abdullrahman always lose his attention and get busy with other things the teacher will keep calling
his name to catch his attention.
Naser did not understand how to do the experiment the teacher will ask someone who understand to
explain for his.
Mariam did not know what she has to do.. Teacher will give her instructors to know, and ask her
group to cooperate with their friend
Mahrah is very shy and she do not talk with other .... The teacher do a good reinforcement to
encourage them such as. " Sarah is a good speaker "
Personal focus for this lesson (Based on your previous observed lesson, identify one or two
aspects that need improving. Eg. be more animated, monitor children more closely, provide
more challenging tasks etc)
I will focus to encourage Mahrah to be confidence .
I am going to focus on time management . I only have 40 min to deliver this lesson .
I will focus on Mohammed to give him some duties like distribute the materials to the groups as he is
hyperactive.
